Beautiful Things

You're standing at your bathroom mirror Cryin' "What-did-I-do?" tears Your friends are out and you're right here There's a party, you didn't know You just found out from your phone Did they not want you to go? Oh, yeah, you feel that twisting knife Oh, I know it ain't right Fires burn up canyons A hurricane can wreck a beach Words can make a mockingbird forget they're born to sing Lies can break a fragile heart And doubt can crush your dreams but honey, just take it from me The world is hard on beautiful things You're pretty and you're smart God made a work of art Girl, don't pick yourself apart And quit wonderin' why he did it Nothing 'bout you needs fixin' It ain't what you are, it's what he isn't Oh, I know it don't feel fair But oh, I can't count the times I've been there Fires burn up canyons A hurricane can wreck a beach Words can make a mockingbird forget they're born to sing Lies can break a fragile heart And doubt can crush your dreams but honey, just take it from me The world is hard on beautiful things You shine, it's gonna be alright You're gonna be alright You shine, it's gonna be alright You're gonna be alright 'Cause fires burn up canyons A hurricane can wreck a beach Come on pretty mockingbird, I wanna hear you sing Lies can break a fragile heart And doubt can crush your dreams but honey, just take it from me Just hold on, just breathe The world is hard on beautiful things You shine, it's gonna be alright You're gonna be alright
